What Is The Suggestion For A Hole In Ear With Hard Impacted Wax?
Hello, I was prescribed Acetic Acid 2 percent. I have a hole in my ear with hard impacted wax. In doing research they state not to use Acetic Acid with a hole. My ear is so impacted my ENT can't see my eardrum. Also, the drops are making me very dizzy.

Hello
Welcome in H.C.M.
In reference to your query I would like to suggest you for using wax softener ear drop containing- sodium bicarbonate + phenol + glycerine. This ear drop will make ear wax soft and thus removal become easy.
As you are already having hole in your ear drum so please consult ENT doctor for removal of ear wax as to avoid further damage to ear drum.
Hope that your query is over.
Regards.
